Implants succeed the large majority of the time, but they are not immune to failure. An implant that aches, feels loose, or sits in gum tissue that stays red and swollen needs attention quickly, because what is usually being lost is the bone holding it in place.
At Bluewater Dental, our Palm Beach Gardens office establishes why an implant failed before proposing what comes next, whether the cause was infection, insufficient bone at placement, or a bite loading it in a direction it was not designed for. Treatment may involve removal, grafting to rebuild the site, and replacement once it has healed.
Dr. Calvin Kaler leads our Palm Beach Gardens office on Burns Road, and we are glad to assess an implant placed somewhere else without making you feel awkward for asking.
